- Silla University partners with Mongolia’s National Police Agency to run a one-month international police training program in Korea.
- Program focuses on modern policing skills, including CPTED, cybercrime investigation, and police management case studies.
- Hands-on training and field visits in Busan aim to help Mongolian officers apply Korean policing practices back home.
Silla University has taken another step toward strengthening global cooperation in public safety education by partnering with the Mongolian National Police Agency to deliver a specialized international training program for police officers. The university announced on the 29th that it has begun operating a one-month 'Capacity Building Training Program for the Mongolian National Police Agency', designed to enhance professional competencies and promote knowledge exchange between the two countries.
The program officially commenced on the 23rd with an entrance ceremony held on the Silla University campus. Ten police officers from the Mongolian National Police Agency attended the event, marking the formal start of their training in Korea. University leaders, program instructors, administrative staff, and the participating officers were present at the ceremony, where they shared the goals of the program and expressed their commitment to its successful completion.
Established through close cooperation between Silla University and the Mongolian National Police Agency, the training program is structured as an international exchange-based educational course with a strong emphasis on practical application. The curriculum introduces participants to Korea’s advanced policing systems while addressing contemporary challenges in law enforcement. Key areas of focus include Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED), cybercrime investigation techniques, and real-world case studies on police organization and management.
Rather than relying solely on classroom instruction, the program combines theoretical learning with hands-on experiences. Participants will take part in field visits to the Busan Metropolitan Police Agency and other related institutions to gain direct exposure to Korea’s policing practices. Alongside professional training, the officers will also engage in Korean cultural experience programs, offering them a broader understanding of the country’s social and institutional context.

A distinctive element of the program is its emphasis on practical outcomes. Trainees are required to prepare and present a Country Report and Action Plan, enabling them to adapt the knowledge and strategies acquired in Korea to the local conditions and policy needs of Mongolia. This approach, Silla University said, is intended to ensure that the training has a lasting impact beyond the duration of the program.
Kim Yang-hyun, professor of Police Administration at Silla University and head of the training program, said the initiative represents an important milestone in bilateral cooperation. “This training serves as a meaningful opportunity to elevate cooperation between Korea and Mongolia in the field of policing”, he said, adding that the university would draw on its accumulated expertise in police education and international collaboration to deliver effective, field-oriented training.
A representative of the Mongolian National Police Agency trainees also shared positive expectations, saying it was particularly valuable to learn directly about Korea’s policing system and its experience in responding to cybercrime. The trainee added that participants would actively engage in the program to help strengthen policing capabilities back home.
Silla University said it plans to use this initiative as a foundation for further expanding its global cooperation network, with a focus on international police education and broader public sector training programs in the future.
